Ashnard (アシュナード), often known as Mad King Ashnard, was the king of Daein during the Mad King's War. He gained power by tricking his father into signing a blood pact, and waited until every successor to the throne had died to end it. He then assassinated his father and became king. His plan was to unleash Yune from Lehran's Medallion, so he started a global war by first attacking the neighboring country of Crimea. He easily overpowered the country and killed its leaders, except for the publicly unknown princess, Elincia. He then went on to invade Gallia, the home of the beast Laguz. By the end of Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance, he is killed, leaving Daein without a ruler. The country was later taken over by Begnion. He is a playable character in the trial maps after beating Path of Radiance 15 times.

Battle quotes

“

[...] Heh heh heh. I remember that stance well. So your father taught you swordplay, did he? How very happy that makes me. [...] You? Cut me down? Heee... Good. If you possess the strength to do so, then so be it. That process is the principle on which my ideal world operates. [...]

[...] You ask that of me? You? A girl? Pah! Trivial. You're not worth the effort it would take to kill you. [...] Are you... Gawain's daughter? [...] Heh heh... Hwah hah hah hah... Wheeee haaa haaa haaaaaarrr! Perhaps I'll kill you after all! If you are their child, you get special privileges! Show me your might!

Is that you, Tauroneo? As I thought... You betrayed me after all. [...] In my father's time, there was a man who was one of the Four Steadfast Riders. That man grew old and useless, and retired from the front lines. How does his story end, you ask? Come, let us write it together. [...] Heh heh heh... Will history judge me to be just or evil? We will not know until all of this is finished. [...]

Annoying little insect. Whose path is it that you think to block? [...] Are you complaining to me? Come back some other time. I'm busy. [...] Eh? Who are you talking about? The name is unfamiliar... I don't think we ever had such a general. [...] This is a waste of time. Leave my sight at once. [...]

That is not the extent of your might, beast tribe warrior! I will not allow you to die while the great power within you still slumbers. Release your rage! Release your hate! Show me the fury you keep inside!

Hawks of Phoenicis! How strong are you that Begnion should fear you so? I trust I may expect good things from our battle.

”

— Ashnard, when fighting a Hawk Laguz in Path of Radiiance

Galdr singer, did you come here today so that I might take ownership of you? [...] You know that already, do you not? Why would you come all this way to ask something you already know? Do you wish me to deny it? [...] I do. Oh, how I do... It's true. The world may be destroyed by the coming of the dark god. Then again, it may not. I question the way in which our society is designed. No matter what strength a person has, it is the station he is born into that controls his destiny. And you cannot control where you will be born. Do you believe that a person of low birth should simply endure the curse of his station? I think not. If you are stronger than those around you, you should benefit from your strength. This is why I will use my strength to remake this world. Class and rank will not matter. Human and sub-human will not matter. The strong will possess everything. The weak will submit to their will. Is this not the meaning of peace? [...] That is the natural order. The only way for the weak to survive is to cling to the strong. Our discussion is over. Tell me, frail little bird who cannot fight; which do you choose? Submission? Or death? [...] Very well... Then I will give you the alternative! You will be a weight around my neck no more!

Heh heh... Heeee heeee heh... So you're still alive, are you? [...] Do you really want to do this? Do you believe you can defeat me? [...] Did you think I would allow that? Whaaaa haa haa haaaaa! [...]

[...Eh? You're not human. But your aura... You're not a beast, nor a bird... You must be a dragon!]/[A white dragon! To meet with you here... Wheeee haa haa haaaa! For me, there is no greater joy!] [...] And that is? [...] That... That is what you want? Whaaa haaa haaa haaaaa! Fool! There never was such a cure! [...] Tell me, dragon, were you our Worm? Heh heh heh. I see... So your goal is to stop the Goldoans from fighting. Tsk, tsk, tsk! [...] Despise me! Loathe me! Whaaa haa haa haaaaaa! I will feast on your hatred! Let your hate build, dragon! Attack me with everything you have! I know your strength is not gone yet!

You're the one they speak of in whispers... The lion king's shadow. What are you doing so far from your body, shadow? Am I so terrible that your king hides in fear? [...] What impudence! Are you prepared become a pile of bones for your king? You'll make a fine snack!
